Espacios opened towards the end of 2012 and has firmly established itself on the party circuit in Miramar for your funky young twenty-somethings (and older wannabees!) This place consists of an ample terrace, small bar and various inside rooms to a comfortable Miramar mansion. The outdoor deck has been set up with tables and bar stools in a bar rather than restaurant style. Table service is excellent, the bar can be a bit annoying since beers are in a different place to cocktails but I am sure they will work it out. They do periodically have live music here but really this is either a pre or post party place. Relax, enjoy the good music, and try some of the excellent tapas and do some people watching.
